Lesson 5: Parasite Protection: No clinic required 🪱🛡️

⏱️ 10–12 minutes | Low-cost immunity defense for real-life conditions

Parasites are the silent thieves of the barrio.
They steal your energy.
Your nutrients.
Your mood.
Your sleep.
Your ability to think clearly.

Most people have NO idea they’re carrying freeloaders.

Common signs:
😴 constant tiredness
🤐 bloating or gas
🤒 random stomach pain
😖 itchy skin
🫠 brain fog
🍽️ always hungry but no energy

The good news?
✨ You can fight 80% of parasite exposure with simple, cheap, daily habits.

Real barrio-friendly parasite shields:

🪭 Boil or sun-purify (SODIS) your water
No clean water = parasites’ playground.

🍋 Use limón + salt rinse on fruits/veggies
Even a 30-second wash kills tons of bacteria.

🔥 Cook proteins all the way
No medium-rare chicken in this economy, mi pana.

🙌 Soap + nails scrub
Parasite eggs hide under nails.

🌡️ Weekly “detox” trio:
– papaya seeds (just 3–5, don’t go wild)
– mint tea
– garlic in food

These aren’t abuela myths.
They’re backed by microbiology studies.

Most importantly:
Gratitude creates calm — and a calm gut absorbs nutrients better.
Yes, that’s real physiology.
Your mood affects your digestion.
Your digestion affects your entire life.
